Synopsis:

One was a soldier in the Croatian Defense Council (HVO) and the other in the Army of BH (ARBiH). Marko is a Catholic Croat and Arif a Muslim Bosniak. When the war broke out in their hometown of Gornji Vakuf-Uskoplje in the early 1990s they fought on opposing sides. A quarter century since the end of the war, Marko and Arif spend their nights and days fighting a common enemy – the Posttraumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), a mental illness caused by traumatic war-time experiences. Abandoned by the state and deprived of proper medical care, besides the PTSD, Marko and Arif were brought together by an unusual therapy which helps them cope with the challenges of their daily life. They are the PEOPLE WHO PLANTED TREES.
